6. №5: Watch the film “Sevenfacts about UK”:
What you didn’t know about the United Kingdom.
Drowned in beer. London has experienced many disasters since it was established two millennia
ago. One such event was a beer flooding in 1814, when a huge vat ruptured, releasing 1.4 million
liters of beer. This wave actually killed 8 people.
Accents. There are around 56 main accents in the UK, but with hundreds of noticeable variations.
In fact, on average, accents change every 40 km and sometimes even less.
The egg dispute. Fun fact: US eggs are illegal in Britain and British eggs are illegal in the USA.
Why? US eggs are illegal in the UK because they are washed. British eggs are illegal in the US
because they are not.
Mommy, Daddy and…a third person. Since 2015 the United Kingdom allows in vitro fertilization
using DNA from three people. The technique obviously raises significant ethical issues. However
it could prevent mitochondrial diseases that lead to heart disease, blindness or other illnesses.
Longest reign. Queen Elizabeth II is the longest reining British monarch in history. She ascended
to the throne on February 6th 1952. She surpassed Queen Victoria, her great-great grandmother,
on September 9th 2015.
Keep calm and carry on. This poster has become very popular in recent years. But it was actually
designed in 1939 in preparation for the predicted attack and invasion by the Nazis. However it
was hardly displayed and was little known until a copy was rediscovered in 2000.
Conquerors. At its height the British Empire was larger than Africa, close to the size of the Moon.
Today it is officiallycalled the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The
Queen however is still the ruling monarch of 16 independent nations, including Canada, Australia
and New Zealand!

Speaking words of wisdom let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom let it be
And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Yeah there will be an answer let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom let it be
And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah let it be
Oh there will be an answer let it be
Let it be, let it be
